JR street artist and TED PRIZE winner




i just loved this. i would want to do this! i first came across him reading GOOD magazine(a magazine for people who give a damn), the article was cool but when i stubled upon him just surfing google images i found out just how much of a hero he is. im just so amazed at how he impacted so many folks and traveled and that the communities embraced him. and the whole conflict with the middle east. im sure he is using his art to spread awareness that they shouldnt hate eachother. BRAVO

the kiosk






the kiosk is a little hole in the wall joint on spring street. lots of very edgy spay paint art going on in the hallways. not the obnoxious kind (like something cool done by an artist) when i walked by i thought it was a club of some sort. i asked a neighbor and she encouraged me to check it out. it is a store. a girl goes traveling and brings things back for the different countries shes been to. she sets it up like an exhibition. classifying each collection by country. the assortment ranged from candy to cooking utensils. they were everyday items that looked exotic and foreign in some way. i may return and purchase some of the funky little nicknacks.

pinkberry, my new happy food : )





i went to a pinkberry for the first time today! it was a bright colorful chic little spot. they sell nothing but frozen yogurt. i would compare to jamba juice prices(another spot i just love) after checking out my favorite art gallery, i stopped in. i tried the small original. it comes with your choice of toppings(as long as it fits in the cup). i chose peices of mango, pineapple, kiwi, raspberries and some honey. it was delish!

helmut newton is my new love!!!!!!!!!!!!

so, i went to the MOMA museum of design today and i just couldnt walk past this book. it is his latest, entitled Sumo. it was huge and it was heavy! it was fanFUCKINGtastic. i came upon it once before at stand bookstore on 14th street. i was rushing and didn't have much time to look through it. but today i did. it was the most intriguing collection of dressed and nude photos i've ever seen. all the work was so cohesive. many of the works were in black and white and each photo expressed a tasteful sexiness. take a look...

how many is too many?





i am recently out of a relationship. i want to move on and date for awhile in hopes that i find the one want to share the rest of my life with. at first i was very hopful and excited about this new lifestyle that im embracing. then it just came to me, ive have sex with a few guys. where do i draw the line. im not gonna specify how many(and i do know how many) but i think on my quest for Mr. Right i will have to go through a few more guys until i find the one that can satisfy me on all levels.

should i limit myself to a specific number and if i cant find what i want, just settle

or should i just follow my heart and not look at these guys as a number, but another step closer to my ideal mate?
i guess im not the reason this is on my mind. i remember when this topic came up with my last boyfriend, even with the short list of bed buddies i had, it still didnt seem to sit well with him. who knows maybe no guy wants to believe the woman they are with used to feel the same way wit someone else. or, like my friend said yesterday it just starts to lose its value after a certain number. idk how i feel about that one. its probably just the way guys think with their double standards.
well i have lots of time to think about this. im just gonna be dating for a while and hopefully i can figure this out.
